An average 1-room hotel in a decent area runs about $125 per night during the summer season, so it really depends on when you are going. You might be able to find a suite in that range during the off-season, but figure the price to be double in the summer.In Anaheim, I would start by looking at the Howard Johnson. You can also try the Hyatt Regency Anaheim (Garden Grove, actually), or the Desert Palms. Just go to Travelocity.com and look for hotels in the areas that you mentioned. I prefer Anaheim because the prices are more competitive.
http://www.palosverdesinn.com/This is the place I recommend to my friends that are coming to LA who are looking for something cheap like you are. You re not gonna get a suite anywhere for what you want to pay but you could get additional regular rooms and spend the same amount if you stay at the Palos Verdes Inn. It s in a good area (Redondo Beach). You can walk to the beach, it s a five minute drive from the largest mall in L.A. (Del Amo), there are tons of restaurants and bars nearby (walking distance), the rooms are decent, they have an ocean view (on the upper floors) and it s centrally located between Anaheim and West Hollywood. They also run packages on and off that are good like buy 2 nights, get the 3rd night free and that sort of stuff.
there are quite a few sites that you can search that will likely show you great hotels at the best prices available. check out the website BookMe and you will be able to compare prices on all the reputable travel sites in just a couple minutes. it s very convenient and will save you a bunch of time and money. Also, make sure you buy them online... otherwise they charge much higher fees for phone orders. good luck.
to tell you the truth go get a hotel room in anaheim and if you can drive a lil farther get a room in corona or norco lot cheaper just look around your just 20 mins away from anaheim from these cities
nobody listens to me But Go to the auto club (AAA) and get their brochure on hotels/motels in the Los Angeles area.. Not only does it give the prices but gives ratings and reviews.
